      I hope everything is going well

      Creator Wilson Miner on September 17, 2009

      I totally missed the update that this was done. I'd love a print of Megaton please!

      If I had any money I'd get pledging right away, however just my praise and one little tip will have to do...

      I think your megaton painting is frankly amazing, it contains the same vibrancy of many famous landscapes, more so than some of them even.

      Anyway, have you heard of spotify? It allows you to listen to pretty much any music, for free, just off your internet connection. That could help your music inspiration offer if someone has a rather obscure request.

      Hi, just wanted to let you know that I would like Megaton please. I entered this info along with my pledge selection ($20 or more...I pledged $25) a few days ago, but just in case that didn't get to you, here it is again! Thanks. Great stuff, by the way!

    10. Missing_small

      Creator Mac Justice on August 11, 2009

      One more down for Megaton. Looks like you'll be getting a bulk discount?

    11. Jb_angel_th.small

      Creator James Barnett on August 6, 2009

      Megaton for both of you!

      As we wind things up, let me thank you all again! And remind you laggards who haven't either posted here or emailed me from my website (jamesbarnett.net) to let me know what prints you want/what audio I should be listening to! And whatever else I need to know for the big commissions.

      Thank you all 400 thousand times.

      Megaton Please, thanks I'm a really big fan and I'm glad I came across this and with 3 days to go!

    13. Missing_small

      Creator anison on July 27, 2009

      Megaton for me, please!

    14. Jb_angel_th.small

      Creator James Barnett on July 27, 2009

      Oh my lord. Over 2K!

      Bongadoo, yep, I'll ship anywhere it's possible to ship to, though I may ask for a little extra for shipping, depending on what and where. And thank you for the kind words!

      I see no reason why games shouldn't resonate. You spend 20 hours in a world, say, it's bound to leave as much of an impression as a 2-hour movie, or more.

      Peter and Davis and Jimmy and Matthew: gotcha!

    15. Cat.small

      Creator Davis Cox on July 27, 2009

      megaton for me, thanky!

    16. Missing_small

      Creator Bongadoo on July 27, 2009

      Did I tip you over $2000? Hope you're pleased :) I'm surprised no one else has gone for the Party Pak yet!

      Will you ship to the UK? I hope so. I've been looking for several pieces for my flat over the last two years, I was looking at regular game art (too geeky), astronomy art (too nerdy), nothing really seems to fit what I'm after, but I love your work, art imitating art imitating life, who would have thunk it! If you consider games as art I guess :)

      It's strange how images can bring nostalgia even though they're games. I would love to see you do something oldschool, maybe Doom/Quake, but I would love to see some 2D interpretations aswell, Monkey Island (especially with the resurgance), Ultima, Day of the Tentacle, anything like that.

      Looking forward to the prints!

      hi james, can you do my watercolor while listening to Snow (Hey Oh) by the Red Hot Chili Peppers. I hope you have it, but I can send it by email if you don't. Thanks man!

    18. Photo1_copy_3.small

      Creator Jimmy Chan on July 25, 2009

      Megaton for me too, please.

    19. Pixels4.small

      Creator Matthew Gallant on July 24, 2009

      Megaton for me as well, please! (Love the colours)

    20. Jb_angel_th.small

      Creator James Barnett on July 16, 2009

      On it, Ms. Blanchard. And maniraptor, it could be a couple, too, if you're feeling especially indecisive.

      Creator maniraptor on July 16, 2009

      Now I just have to decide on which audio file to send. Hmmm... decisions, decisions!

      Creator Joanne Carey Blanchard on July 16, 2009

      Make for us a small Michelle's Place and a City 17 Depot pleeeeeeeeeease.

    23. Jb_angel_th.small

      Creator James Barnett on July 16, 2009

      Thanks for putting your preferences in here, folks. This'll be easier than keeping track of separate emails in my inbox. (Emailers: do not feel slighted! That's fine, too.)

      Creator Brian on July 14, 2009

      er... "once" or "one" place... whichever makes you grammatically happy.
      button.

    25. Missing_small

      Creator Brian on July 14, 2009

      I contacted you via email, but just so you have it in once place, I'd like the Megaton print please :-)

    26. Fb_profile_picture.small

      Creator Colin DuPre on July 14, 2009

      megaton or 2fort red please

    27. Car.small

      Creator Joe Sullivan on July 14, 2009

      Hey again, what exactly does custom oil painting mean? Could you do me up one of Arthur Rimbaud like you did the Duke? that'd be dynamite. My email's Bflagsst@aol.com

    28. Missing_small

      Creator Alex Ness on July 13, 2009

      I'm in for Megaton as well.

      (I might throw in another pledge for Goldrush and 2fort Blu later, they're excellent paintings.)

    29. Missing_small

      Creator Michael Dintaman on July 13, 2009

      Another one for megaton.

    30. Avatar.small

      Creator loglow on July 13, 2009

      Don't know where to specify the print I want. I'd like Megaton, and a little watercolor.

    31. Jared.small

      Creator Jared M. Vandergriff on July 13, 2009

      Echoing Wilson: I didn't see a spot when I pledged to specify which print, but I want Megaton! (Too)

    32. Headshot-halfcrop.small

      Creator Wilson Miner on July 13, 2009

      Didn't see a spot when I pledged to specify which print, but I want Megaton!

      Creator James Barnett on July 12, 2009

      Thank you, Mr. Joe Sullivan!

      This may be obvious, but let me reiterate: anything over 550 (the possibility of a fancy camera aside) goes toward me being able to ignore my day job for longer before I have to taken on another project (I'm a freelance editor).

      Someone buys the car, hell, I can paint unfettered until the fall!

    34. Car.small

      Creator Joe Sullivan on July 12, 2009

      I like your paintings. People like painters, if there was just a site to back painters it'd do well. Best wishes.

    35. Jb_angel_th.small

      Creator James Barnett on July 9, 2009

      What the hell, guys. It's not even up a day!

      I see a lot of custom pictures in my future. And I'm good with that.

      Thank you all!

      Now I'm curious to see what happens the OTHER 29 days.
